Comment (by ttcoder):

Hi Ingo, not sure how that factors into the discussion, but FWIW we are
using a custom build of the kernel add-on overriding the one from the
haiku package, with [http://cgit.haiku-os.org/haiku/tree/src/add-
ons/kernel/file_systems/userlandfs/kernel_add_on/FileSystemInitializer.cpp#n69
this line]

{{{
"/system/servers/userlandfs_server",
}}}

modified to point in home instead, and that's where we got successful, in
my testing's and Dane's; we're going to production with that..
Agreed it would be interesting to add a flag to the hpkg files though, to
allow to force them to go to system (there is a "system package" element
in the .PackageInfo grammar but is it related?). Sometimes I install a
package in home yet I don't want all its dependancies to end up in home as
well, not as tidy.
